NCT ID: NCT06341946 Not yet recruiting - Hydrocephalus Clinical Trials

Role of Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy in Management of Malfunctioning Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt

Start date: April 5, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to analyze our experience in management of malfunctioning ventriculoperitoneal shunt by using endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV).

NCT ID: NCT03764358 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for End Stage Renal Disease

AUSTrian Randomized Interventional Study on Dialysis Accesses

AUSTRIA
Start date: March 6, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with diagnosed end stage renal disease and indication for chronic dialysis rely on a well-functioning access for dialysis. The KDOQI Guidelines For Vascular Access follows a "fistula first" approach for every patient, whenever possible. Thus, every patient, regardless of age, clinical state and co-morbidities an arteriovenous fistula should be preferred over a tunneled cuffed catheter (TCC). These recommendations are based on retrospective and register studies. There have been no prospective studies in this subject so far. In addition, most of the collected data refers to patients of all ages, regardless of their comorbidities and general clinical state. In this study, we address differences between two dialysis vascular access types in elderly or frail patients. We will compare TCCs with arteriovenous fistulas in the selected population consisting of elderly patients over 60 years of age or those with a Charlson Comorbidity Index >6 independent of age. In our hypothesis TCCs will be superior to arteriovenous fistulas in this population regarding the examined end-points.

NCT ID: NCT01976559 Completed - Hydrocephalus Clinical Trials

Comparison of Continuous Noninvasive and Invasive Intracranial Pressure Measurement--Celda Infusion Subprotocol

Start date: November 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research is being done to determine the accuracy of two noninvasive methods of measuring the pressure of the spinal fluid, also known as intracranial pressure (ICP).
